Returned once more from hiatus, we continue our trek through the chaos-infested Russian landscape while colour, that may or may not be out of space, warping around us. The sad background music is how you know it's Russia. Listen as our preponderance of naming npcs after iTunes reviewers almost overwhelms the normal goofing around. Almost. Also, rock monsters!
